Description:
The Böker Plus Genios is a compact and light-weight gentleman's knife. It is remarkable and modest at the same time. It is also the resulf of the wharncliffe-shaped blade. When they see it many people often associate it with a classic, straight razor. You also clearly recognize designer traces of the famous 'swayback' design from the traditionals.
Böker designed the Genios as a two-handed opener. However, after some practice you can also easily open it with one hand. When opened the blade is locked by a backlock. As such the blade won't close when you don't want it to. The handle is made from titanium and contains a carbon fibre inlay. A stunning design, made from light-weight materials. The blade is enhanced with a thin hollow grind which shows off the stainless VG10 steel to its best advantage. It is amazing to use.
Especially as a light-weight gentleman's knife for daily use. With a 7.6 cm blade you have enough to peel an apple, but it is still also compact and slim enough to never be too intimidating. A genius design, the Böker Genios.
